Sorry for that couldn't resist.

Anyway, my Wii has been working great for a long time. ever since launch date when I got it, I've had no problems. About a week ago, however, some trouble began. I had a couple of people over, we wanted to play Wii sports.I powered the machine on, ok that worked. The health screen comes on, looking good. But the "Press A to continue" is not there. I noticed that the remotes were properly synced and on. I tried reseting it, unplugging it, etc. but haven't had any luck so far, it just gets stuck on the health screen. Anyone know how to fix this or have any suggestions?

try letting it get passed the health screen by itself, or try unhooking the whole thing, plugging it back in, and synching the 'motes.

Thanks for responding, I tried doing that stuff, but none of it worked. Anyone else got ideas?

Nintendo can fix it

u did go ahead and tried pressing A right?

^ Yeah lol, quite a bit.

I guess that sending it to nintendo might be what I have to do. Anyone know if it costs?

Its free if you are still under warranty.But try unplugging it fora minuite then try again.

everybody is still under warranty all systems have a 1 year warranty and the wii hasnt been out for a year

it might be the batterys r u using alcaline?

Thanks for all your responses! I'm not using any strange batteries or anything.

I emailed Nintendo customer service last night, but it might be a few days before I hear anything, so I guess we'll see. I also asked about what I could do to have it fixed.

Thanks for your responses. Whenever I find out more, I'll post it here.

It's a lot quicker if you call Nintendo, trust me. I had to do it today actually. The number is on the back of the Wii manuals. The people there are real nice too.

I just got emailed back from them. They basically linked me to the help thing on the website I already checked. They also said I should call the support number like the person above me posted if I didn't find the answer. I guess that's what I'll have to do.

benk, when you press on the button(s) on the wii remote, how do the LED blue lights flash?

That doesn't matter because if it's a problem with his Wii remote then the health screen would pass anyway.

Does the part at the bottom of the health screen where it says something like "Press A to Continue" blinking?
